, i’ufl ,run horses in , run horses in the he says he will run horses in the maroon colours of his stud for the next five years or so, but the amount of money he puts into the sport, particularly in ireland, this has been quite a blow, really, so a big shock in the horse racing industry today. what will happen? you say that things will wind down, but what happens to the horses? tiger role, for example, what about them? it could possibly go for an unprecedented third win in the grand national next year. it is fine, so he should still run in those same colours with the same jockey, davy russell, next april, and it would be amazing if they won, so they will carry on as normal. what is behind all this? michael o'leary, as people know, runs the successful ryanair business. in that we can, in the irish times rich list, he is now only worth 867 million euros, so he

is no longer a billionaire. my heart is no longer a billionaire. my heart is bleeding for him at this stage. possibly, he is withdrawing a little bit because he is rainy get in financially. he said it is down to his kids getting older and he wants to enjoy their activities. the interesting thing about michael is, people take the mickey out of michael because he is quite tight in terms of his ryanair business, charging potentially to use the loo and that kind of thing, but on the racecourse, he is quite an approachable guy. i think it will be approachable guy. i think it will be a big blow, this. absolutely. perhaps looking to move his investments elsewhere. frank, thanks very much indeed for all of that tonight. with o'leary winding down, one man who's bowed out is jockey ruby walsh who announced his retirement earlier this month. he believes he leaves the sport in a safer place

than it has been in years — and that the british horse racing authorityy should be praised for the work it's been doing in horse safety — reflected, he believes, in last year's fatality rate. that is an achievement, but there will always be an element of risk in national hunt racing for horse and jockey. i think we have gone a huge distance with it and it is only right, but they cannot remove the risk. national hunt racing will have to stand and shout for itself. the only way you can stop fatalities on the road is to remove all the cars. you can put in airbags, side impact

bars, speed limits, drink—driving limits, better driving tests, mots, whatever you want, but the only way you can remove the fatalities is to stop the car is going on the roads. it isa stop the car is going on the roads. it is a bit the same for national hunt racing. they can put in as many safety measures as they can, but the only way to remove all the fatalities is to stop it, and i don't think that's the way to go. ruby walsh reflecting on what he feels are the improvements in horse safety. after ending an eleven year wait for a major, all eyes will be on tiger woods as golf's pga championship begins at bethpage black in long island — traditionally the last of golf‘s majors to be played but has been brought forward this year. and having not played since that incredible triumph at the masters, inevitably all the talk centres around woods and whether he can follow that up this week. would i like to play in the olympics? yes, i have never played

in the olympics. i'm sure i won't have many more opportunities going forward at 43 years old now to play in many olympics, so yes, that would bea in many olympics, so yes, that would be a first for me, and something that i would certainly welcome if i was part of the team. getting there and making the team is going to be the tough part. tiger woods adding that he hopes to compete at the olympics for the first time. we head to slovakia next where great britain are competing in the ice hockey world championships. they took on denmark earlier in a match they were hopeful of winning to prove they can compete with the very best at the top level, but they slipped to a heavy defeat. following up on defeats to germany and canada in group a, leaving them bottom. seth bennett is there. and seth, defeats to the number one seeds expected, but this is a disappointment. coach pete russell saying they had won admirers. it is remarkable. they were hoping to get something out of this game. the danes are a really good side and

they got hit early on with power—play goals. the danes were outstanding and gb found it difficult, finding themselves three orfour difficult, finding themselves three or four goals difficult, finding themselves three orfour goals down, difficult, finding themselves three or four goals down, conceding five in the second period. they had to fight every single part of the game to repel the danes. once the danes we re to repel the danes. once the danes were gone, they were struggling to get any kind of momentum. they certainly weren't at their best, and that was one of the problems, but i'm delighted to say that alongside me is the great britain head coach, pete russell. how do you explain a performance like that? it was a bad day, but we played against a really good team. i think the first part was good. they took advantage of us and we were too easy to get through. it was a lesson, a big lesson. hopefully we can find a bit of mojo when we come back. three pretty tough games coming up. the usa,

slovakia and finland on the way. does that highlight todayjust how good the level is when you play at the very top of world ice hockey? this level is not even close to the level below. no game we played last year is even remotely close to this level. it is a massive gulf. we will see what happens with the next few results, with france, maybe we will get a shoot out with them at the end. we need to get our defensive game better again because we struggled today and it was definitely a day to forget. against a very good team. still lots of games for great britain to come. for to go, can they get back on track? usa tomorrow, what a task that is. gb coach pete russell who said the performances had gained them admirers up until now.

wigan are at the nou camp stadium on saturday. they face catalan dragons. probably a once—in—a—lifetime opportunity. it is pretty special. a good build—up to the start of the week. looking forward to getting out there no. same for you, zach? a special experience? and iconic stadium, known around the world. yeah, if you had said to be five years ago i would get the chance to play there, i would have thought no chance. how the game has developed in the last few years, it has enabled us to play at such good stadiums like this. i have never been to it, so it is a new experience for me. a new country as well that i have not been to, haven't seen barcelona as a city. i'm looking forward to it. it is

fairto i'm looking forward to it. it is fair to say it is a game you might not have played in. it hasn't been the smoothest of journeys not have played in. it hasn't been the smoothest ofjourneys so far through your career, serving a ban for cocaine use, drink—driving charges as well — is it the case that you thought your career might not have seen you playing in such a big game? yeah, through the trouble isi big game? yeah, through the trouble is i was causing for myself, and being a professional sportsman, the spotlight is on you. i thought, i don't think this is for me. for the first few weeks, i'd probably brushed it under the carpet and said, i won't play. brushed it under the carpet and said, iwon't play. now brushed it under the carpet and said, i won't play. now i know it doesn't work like that. i have focused on myself and sorted a lot of things out. that hasjust brought my love for the game back. i realise how fortunate i am to be in this position and i won't take it for granted again. being in and around my mates, like gilly, training every day, getting the chance to play a great stadiums week in, week out,

and making a bit of history at the weekend, it is a great thing to have. fair to say, the start of the season, we haven't been on the best of runs, but this could be a great opportunity to kick—start your season as we head into the latter stages. we have had disappointments on the weekend and the challenge cup, but it is all eyes on getting to old trafford now. and it starts this weekend. we have come off three wins on the bounce in super league. hopefully we can get a good win in barcelona and kick on the week after. double olympic gold medallist jadejones will look to complete her set of major titles at the world taekwondo championships in manchester this week. it's the first time the event has taken place in the uk and amongst the other fiighters hoping to benefit from home advantage will be bianca walkden — who's looking for her third—successive world crown — and olympic silver medallist lutalo muhammad. bbc sport's nick hope caught up with them ahead of the event, which begins tomorrow? silver in 2011, bronze last time out

— are you desperate for this title? how do you feel? i want to say i am world champion, not just how do you feel? i want to say i am world champion, notjust double olympic champion. before i retire, i wa nt to olympic champion. before i retire, i want to have one like all three. i need to get this one, otherwise i can't retire. it is the one that has just got away, so i am hoping i can put that right in manchester.m just got away, so i am hoping i can put that right in manchester. it is the first time tae kwon do has had a championship in this world championship in this country. for it to be in manchester, it feels like destiny. there were injuries and near misses, then all of a sudden, it felt like things finally click for you and the world championships was a big part of that in 2015. how much are you enjoying this time now? i think after my big operations, my knee surgeries, it changes a person, and what it took for me to be here, just to walk again and run again. i

think something clicked in my head andi think something clicked in my head and i got so obsessed with wanting to win. the more we talk about it, the more i realise that is my chance to go out there and try it, leave my heart and soul on the mat. if i get a gold medal again, heart and soul on the mat. if i get a gold medalagain, i'll heart and soul on the mat. if i get a gold medal again, i'll be really happy. nick hope with the questions there. you can watch it all unfold. it takes place at the manchester arena in the coming days. it is on the bbc red button and via the app and website. finally, a toddler came close to getting clattered by a load of grown men playing aussie rules after somehow encroaching on the pitch! take a look at this. two year old pippa snuck onto the field of play, in the game between amateur sides st bernards and old melburnians in melbourne, but was luckily seen and carried off, just before the ball was thrown in her direction! a safe exit, i think we'll all

agree. that is about it from this edition of sportsday tonight. england have lost one wicket in that third one—day international. jason roy departing on 159—1. looking good for that target of 359. from myself and the team, good night. good evening. clear skies across the uk and some very dry air with us at the moment. big temperature contrasts from first thing in the morning to afternoon. minus two celsius in the highlands, warming up to 22 celsius during the day. one or two spots even higher than this across scotland because the warming is coming from the clear skies and strong sunshine overhead. tonight, we lose that again in temperatures

drop away. temperatures won't be as low by night, though still a chilly feel across the south. temperatures not getting as high by day because there is more of a breeze coming from the cool sea on the edge of the high pressure. western areas may see a bit more breeze tomorrow, temperatures not quite so high across parts of ireland. for most, another blue sky day. late into the afternoon, across the pennines, the lincolnshire fells and southern opulence of scotland, cloud bubbling up opulence of scotland, cloud bubbling up and an outside chance of a shower or two. —— the southern uplands of scotland. 22—25dc across central and northern scotland. cooler further south. on thursday, the low pressure in central europe is trying to creep towards us, high pressure trying to edge away, and in doing so, a

greater chance of cloud. a chance of a few showers in western scotland and maybe northern ireland in the afternoon. england and wales will see more cloud developed through the day. a few spots will still get to around 20 celsius, but most in the mid to high teens. it will be cooler along the eastern coast. cloudy conditions for england and wales and a greater chance of one or two showers, though most areas will be drive. if the wind starts to ease down across the south this weekend, it may warm up just a little bit. overall, this weekend, a cooler, cloudier story. nice where you got the sunshine, based on the western coast, a greater chance of a few showers, particularly on saturday. goodbye.

you're watching beyond 100 days. america is not looking for war with iran. but if american interests are attacked, the us will respond. at today's meeting between the russian and us foreign ministers, this was just one of the contentious issues. there were plenty of others. between the middle east, venezuela and election meddling — it's clear there's a lot these two powers don't agree on right now. china invokes 5,000 years of battles in its trade war with the us. but donald trump insists america's farmers will win this one. also on the programme: "simple, reliable, secure." that's the whatsapp's slogan. but not totally secure.
